Overview
Crafted from a single organically farmed site on the Mangatahi Terraces in Hawke’s Bay, Paddock Six Syrah 2020 is the flagship wine from Easthope Family Winegrowers. Hand-picked, wild-fermented, and matured in large-format French oak, this elegant Syrah captures purity of site, structure, and expression. It is a benchmark for modern New Zealand Syrah—refined, complex, and built to age. A wine of intention and grace, destined for thoughtful pairings and refined occasions.
Tasting Notes
The bouquet is vividly aromatic, with wild blackberry, boysenberry, and cassis seamlessly woven with violet, black pepper, crushed herbs, and flinty mineral complexity. On the palate, it is medium-bodied yet concentrated, with silky tannins and a savoury, graphite-laced core. Black fruit and spice glide across the palate, guided by precision and poise. An age-worthy Syrah of outstanding clarity and finesse.
